Sarah Jaffe has come a long way since her debut EP Even Born Again was self-released in 2008. The Texas native has since released two critically acclaimed albums Suburban Nature (Kirtland 2010) and The Body Wins (Kirtland 2012), she’s toured with Midlake, Chelsea Wolfe, Norah Jones, Blitzen Trapper, Why?, David Gray, Old 97s, CentromatiC, Lou Barlow and New Multitudes. She’s had her voice featured in the Disney/Pixar short The Blue Umbrella that was scored by Jon Brion and she made her late night TV debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live! In addition, through her close relationship with Erykah Badu’s band, The Cannabinoids, Jaffe started writing with S1 under the moniker The Dividends (http://wearethedividends.com). The duo’s first collaboration “Bad Guy” is also the first track on Eminem’s new record MMLP2 which features both a co-write and chorus vocal from Jaffe. To say she’s experienced tremendous growth both personally and professionally would be an understatement. It is hard to predict what is on the horizon for Jaffe in 2014, but guaranteed you’re going to want to know about it.

Instead, the songwriter dove into uncharted waters, knowing damn well she may never make it out. The Body Wins is the dynamic manifestation of Jaffe's creative arsenal, a far cry from the endearing, folk for which she made her name. With studio sensei John Congleton at the helm once again, she sounds right at home in her new skin.” • Daytrotter.Com's Top 200 songs of the year Sarah Jaffe and Centro-matic's Will Johnson collaboration. Press Highlights: “Today I'm delighted to premiere Jaffe's latest, a song called Satire. Produced by Midlake drummer and fellow Texan McKenzie Smith, treat yourself to its pensive and laid-back vibe.” “Hear Sarah Jaffe's Smoky, Atmospheric Rocker 'Defense' / …Smith coaxes a sound out of Jaffe and her band that harkens back to Cat Power's synthier, slinkier turn on last year's Essential album Sun.” via Spin.com “Sarah herself is especially appealing -- she's readily adopted Robyn's slick Nordic look and cross- pollinated it with Jessie Ware's rich, penetrating vocals and Fiona Apple's introspective moodiness. ‘Mannequin Woman’ is a haunting, Feist-conjuring, jazz-club indie pop that makes you want to explode into a thousand molecules and trail off into the void.” “Jaffe has completed the transition from ‘musician’ to ‘artist,’ and she wears it well." –NPR First Listen "Satisfying" –Freddie Campion, VOGUE Artist of the Week “Her voice holds a wounded determination. It's full of scrapes and quavers, and capable of both Fiona Apple's acidity and Feist's suppleness.” Touring Highlights: • Toured with as DireCt Support: Midlake (US & Europe), Norah Jones, Lou Barlow, Old 97s, Centro-matiC, New Mutltitudes (Jay Farrar/Jim James Woody Guthrie tribute Group), Blitzen Trapper, David Gray, State Radio, Chelsea Wolfe, and WHY? • Performed at SXSW, ACL Festival, CMJ, NX35, Sunset Sessions, VoCes Femininas Festival in Spain 2011 (headlined), 35 Denton, Northside Fest, NXNE, Paste Untapped Festival and INDEX Festival. • Sold out headline dates including The Granada, Kessler, City Performance Hall & Wyley Theater – Dallas, The Ghost Room & Parish – Austin, Living Room & Mercury Lounge NYC, etc. • Hugely successful “Living Room” tour in 2013.
